I have to find 4 historical references in chapter 7-11. If you know please tell me what they are and the page number you found them on. Thanks
There are several historical references, and for that matter one of the characters' name, Atticus, is in itself a reference to Roman times. But, as you're only asking for four references, these are the ones I've dug out:
Chapter 8:
Appomattox. The village where, on April 9, 1865, Confederate General Robert E. Lee surrendered to Union General Ulysses S. Grant, ending the Civil War.
Rosetta Stone. Discovered in Egypt in 1799, the Rosetta Stone carried a text written in the three historic languages of Egypt. The stone helped historians deciphre the Egyptian Hieroglyphs.
Chapter 9:
This time we aren't fighting the Yankees. A second reference to the US Civil War, which pitted the northerners ("the Yankees") against the southerners ("the Dixies").
An excellent chance of being murdered with a Confederate Army relic. Third reference to the US Civil War. The southern armed forces' official name was the Confederate States Army. The "relic" – a gun – could have been used in the war.
